Luigi Mangione could be getting the death penalty…

This man is innocent, his appearance and build doesn’t match that of the killers, the only “motive” he had was a convenient written confession showing that he supposedly viewed healthcare companies as “parasitic” and too expensive (which does somewhat contradict the actual killers actions) he had said note and the murder weapon conveniently on him while living his ordinary life, the killer held the gun in his right hand while Luigi is left-handed, Luigi and the Killer were potentially seen simultaneously, they wore slightly different coats.

The NYPD KNOW these are different people, they know the evidence is lacking, this isn’t a mistaken identity, it’s framing, they are trying to make themself appear to still be control by catching this man, humiliating him, killing him, when they know full well that the person they are prosecuting ISNT EVEN THE RIGHT GUY! This is an injustice! This is not a fair trial! This is downright tyranny!

They confiscated his bag at the mcdonald’s, took it out of everyone’s sight, unpacked it and repacked it, and THEN took it down to the station and wow there was a manifesto in there that he was just carrying around in daily life for some reason

Definitely the sort of thing that the Bag Of Monopoly Money Guy would be carrying to McDonald’s

Yall the point is that sex toys need to be in a sex store not a pharmacy. Also five year olds these days can in fact read, three year olds these days can read I work in a daycare I have seen it. And why would there be a sex toy AISLE in a PHARMACY in a DRUG STORE?? I’m so??? Sex toys don’t belong in drug stores.

I grew up in pennsylvania, which has pretty stringent liquor laws, so it was absolutely wild to me the first time I walked into a grocery store in california and they had ALCOHOL. RIGHT THERE. NEXT TO THE FOOD. I was shooketh, may I tell you! Alcohol belongs in The Alcohol Store! Why would you treat it as something you can just… purchase! With money and an ID! RIGHT THERE IN PUBLIC! How was anyone not worried that kids might… reach out and TOUCH a bottle!!

I got over it.

Anyway drugstores (in the US) also dispense birth control medications and viagra, sell tampons, antifungals, condoms, and all manner of hygiene products incl. douching kits. Makes perfect sense to me that they’d also sell sex toys. They’ve got everything else you’d put on your junk.

Eh, five year olds can read, but they’re unlikely to be squirrelly about things unless the grown-up in question models squirrelly-ness.

Like, if I had been out shopping seven years ago, it would have gone like this.

Kiddo: For … her … peas …
Me: It says “for her pleasure” but that’s just for adults.
Kiddo: Can I have a lollipop? Can we both have lollipops? I’m bored.
Me: We will pick up the lollipops on our way out at the checkout. Can you tell Mama what’s next on the list?
Kiddo: … Cog soup?
Me: Good guess! Cough syrup. And no, I don’t know why gh says f in this particular case, letters do weird things. Let’s go.

… cog soup.

#pharmacies are selling sex toys because they sell sexual health items#the fact that they don’t have to be coy about it is a good thing as it denotes a huge advancement in our collective social maturity#which i am not about to have taken away by people who can’t be bothered to explain things to their children#did you pop them out expecting to never have to think through what you’re saying to them?#skill issue

The way the toys are blurred out as if they need to have their identities protected 😆. Ah, America, you really are insane about sex.

It’s all the cog soup we eat. It clogs the brain with too many cogs.

As someone with young children, explaining the sex toys and condoms in the pharmacy section at walmart is much, much easier than explaining why the formula is locked away. My daughter thought that it was dangerous, like medicine.

Having to explain to her that some people have to steal in order to feed their babies carved out a piece of my soul and burned it.

firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.

hm some people in my inbox got really mad at this specifically. nothing you can say will convince me that some of the pain and suffering we go through is our “fate” no, it isn’t

You’ll rewrite it later anyway, so stop staring at the blank page like it owes you money. Just start.

this is some of the best advice I’ve ever come across when it comes to writing - it’s so much easier to write if you don’t constantly try to edit or write like it’s the finally product. The thinking of just putting it all on a page and polishing it later is what’s rescued several of my stories ngl
